Tuesday, January 15, 2008

I am scheduled to be on Chicago Public Radio's "848" program tomorrow morning, sometime between 10 and 11 a.m. Eastern time. You can listen, live or via a link afterward, via the 848 Web site. The segment is about a book I have edited, Your Brain on Cubs: Inside the Heads of Players and Fans, to be published in March by Dana Press. The book is about the role of the brain in both playing and being a fan of sports, with the Cubs as my team of choice (duh).

The interview is airing this early because this weekend is the Cubs Convention. Although the publication date is March, the book is available for preorder on Amazon (it's cheap, too!).

So this may be my first ever post to the blog, but a man "robbed" a bank completely unarmed (which means it's not a robbery) and got away with $100,000. The bank didn't even know they were robbed for 11 hours! If there were a Darwin award for companies...someone's gonna get fired.
